Day 5 - Tour to Drumheller and the Royal Tyrell Dinosaur Museum - 98 km one way.
The day dawned as predicted, raining!! But these T drivers are tough, if you had side curtains, you put them on, otherwise rain ponchos and umbrellas. The road to Drumheller is basically a straight line. Leaving Stettler, not a single curve for 40 miles.
Drumheller loves dinosaurs, has one on every corner,,,
This big one, you can climb up to the mouth,,,
The Ford dealer in Drumheller furnished hamburgers for lunch.
On to the Tyrell Museum,,, incredible display tracing ancient history through paleontology. Just a couple pictures, this is worth a special trip to Alberta just to see this.
And then 98 km back to Stettler, still raining, never let up. Side curtains almost kept us dry. What a day.
Watched Canadian news today. Guess what Alberta is worried about? Environmentalists in Ottawa who want to shut down the oil, coal, and gas industries, crazy gun laws, too many emigrants. Sound familiar?
